The hut, located on the north side of the Schneeberg, in the Breiten Ries, is a mountain rescue shelter. It was named after Ferdinand Bürkle, a co-founder of the Viennese alpine rescue service. Bürkle, born on January 1, 1857 in Bürs/Vorarlberg, trained as a teacher in Innsbruck and then worked as a teacher in Puchberg for over 20 years. He was a strict vegetarian and did not drink alcohol. He supported the villagers in every way, took on official and legal matters, and based on his idea, a dairy cooperative was founded there.

Fadensteig Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The first part of the ascent [yellow marking] via the Fadensteig from the Edelweißhütte is particularly beautiful and requires sure-footedness. Due to its rocky formation, it is partially secured with wire ropes for holding. It offers a wonderful view down to the two huts (Edelweißhütte & Almreserlhaus) and over to Dürren Leiten.

After a short rest on the high plateau, we descend via the Fadensteig. After the climb, we reach the Edelweiss Hut for a well-deserved break before returning to the valley …
